Mini was superb last year, and having him spell with Manu and Pritchard looked pretty damn good yesterday.
got to agree top Pro and the young lads can learn so much off him be a big boost to tie him up for another year

Radford full of praise last year on how Mini prepares his body both in training, and post games with ice baths etc, he's meticulous and a great role model apparently.

That properly accounts for why he performs at such a high level at his age top player and one of the most sporting guys I have seen, at Newcastle last year I noticed before he came over to the Fc fans with all the rest of the team he went to every KR player and shook there hand he was meticulous in this, which says to me the guys a tough competitor but fantastic off it also, that's why I like him in the black and white, sign him up great role model kids can learn so much from him both on and off the field

Yeh will do him the world of good rotating with prithchard. Manu and ellis interchanging on the right, unbelivable 2nd row interchanging, thats how id do it anyway. Obviously with ellis sounding like he may spend most his time in the front row, dont think it will go like that. But for me , would be the most effective, and daunting for any opposition

Mini Manu n frank rotating is more than enough to be fair. Should each do 60 ish mins. Teams are not gonna enjoy playing those each week. Between them switching sides as well which could well happen by the looks of it, it's going to make it very hard for teams to formulate a defensive plan.

Very pleasing news, we do have a good proportion of the squad OOC this season and Mini was top of the list to get signed up IMO. On a related point the club tweeted a video of Ellis in the gym today - hopefully not far off a return.
